Code Rush 3.0

About the Event: CODE RUSH 3.0 – The Ultimate Coding Olympics CODE RUSH 3.0 is the flagship competitive programming event organized by CPBYTE, KIET Deemed to be University. Designed to go beyond conventional coding contests, the event delivers a fast-paced experience where participants compete through uniquely designed coding challenges that test logic, speed, teamwork, and strategy. Each round presents a different challenge, requiring participants to think critically, solve complex problems under pressure, and outperform their opponents. From sequential team challenges to knockout battles and advanced algorithmic problem-solving, CODE RUSH 3.0 offers a competitive programming experience designed to test multiple aspects of coding. Whether you're an experienced competitive programmer or someone looking to challenge your coding abilities, this event provides an opportunity to showcase your problem-solving skills. Eligibility: Open to all undergraduate students. Teams must consist of exactly 3 members. Inter-branch teams are allowed. Each participant can be a member of only one team. Participants should have a basic understanding of Programming, Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA), and Competitive Programming. Selection Criteria: Teams will be shortlisted based on their competitive programming and problem-solving profiles. The organizing committee may consider: LeetCode profile. CodeChef profile. Codeforces profile. Other coding or technical profiles. DSA knowledge and coding experience. Contest participation and achievements. Overall profile strength. The decision of the organizing committee regarding shortlisted teams shall be final and binding. Competition Format: The competition consists of three coding events. Relay Sprint: Team-based sequential coding challenge. Three team members solve three different problems in sequence. The next member can begin only after the previous member receives an Accepted (AC) verdict. The team completing all three problems in the shortest time will be declared the winner. This round evaluates teamwork, coordination, speed, and accuracy. Battle Royale: 3v3 knockout coding competition. Two teams compete simultaneously on the same problem. The team that solves the challenge first advances to the next round. The event follows a single-elimination bracket until one team emerges victorious. This round evaluates competitive coding ability, quick thinking, and performance under pressure. Javelin Throw: Individual coding challenge featuring one advanced problem. Participants are ranked based on the number of test cases passed. This round evaluates algorithmic efficiency, optimization, and problem-solving ability. Rules & Guidelines: Plagiarism, cheating, or any unfair means are strictly prohibited. External assistance is not allowed during the competition. Communication between team members is prohibited during the Relay Sprint event. Participants must use only the resources permitted by the organizers. Teams must report according to the event schedule. Any misconduct may result in immediate disqualification. The decision of the organizing committee and judges shall be final and binding. Judging Criteria: Accuracy of solutions. Time taken to solve problems. Number of test cases passed. Algorithmic efficiency and optimization. Problem-solving approach and strategy. Overall performance across the respective events. Why Participate?: Compete in a multi-format competitive programming competition. Test your coding speed, logic, teamwork, and algorithmic thinking. Challenge yourself against student programmers from across the country. Gain practical competitive programming experience. Win prizes, certificates, and recognition. Prepare your team, strengthen your problem-solving skills, and take on the challenge at CODE RUSH 3.0.
